[Nailing according to Ender in metastatic femur fractures. 13 cases].

Thirteen metastatic fractures and metastasis of upper extremity of the femur have been treated by Enders' blind nailing in the Orthopaedic Surgery Department of Strasbourg University Hospital. Either very bad general status or major bone destructions made any other surgical care impossible. The author's purpose of relieving of pain and easy nursing was always obtained and some patients were able to walk after radiotherapy.

[Treatment of open malleolar fractures. Apropos of a series of 26 cases].

The authors report 26 cases of open bimalleolar fractures and discuss the various possibilities of treatment. Immediate internal fixation is indicated for types I or II of openings, being the best prevention of sepsis. These osteosynthesis should be the same as for closed fractures: screwing with or without associated AO plate and repair of peroneotibial ligaments.

[Osteosynthesis of trochantero-diaphyseal and sub-trochanteric fractures. (Apropos of 57 osteosyntheses)].

The authors report 57 cases of osteosynthesis for trochanterodiaphysial and subtrochanteric fractures. They analyse the types of fracture in relation to age, methods of treatment used and the results. They emphasize the poor prognosis after 70 years. They suggest close wound intramedullary nailing whenever possible and osteosynthesis on non-fractured metastasis in order to prevent fracture.

[Inguinal tumor due to synovial cysts of the hip].

The authors operated on a tumorlike synovial cyst of the hip, associated with an idiopathic osteonecrosis of femoral head. So far, about fifty cases have been reported in the medical litterature with various names, and association with hip joint disease. The problems of diagnosis are discussed.

[Blind nailing with reaming in fractures of the femoral shaft. Technique, indications, and results in 399 cases].

The authors have treated 399 fractures of the femoral shaft by blind nailing with reaming following Kuntscher's technique. They fully describe the necessary technical details for a safe operation. They emphasize the importance of an adequate instrumentation and report peroperative complications and the way for avoiding them (poor reduction of the fractures, difficulty for bridging the fracture site, creating of additional fragments, blockage of reamers or nails in the medullary canal). Indications and results are described. I non-union, 15 malunions and 4 sepsis were reported.
